POEM STARTER
Write a poem through the eyes of a child, capturing their wonder at a fireworks display.
In the absence of elaborate and highly descriptive language, think how else you can capture an atmosphere of wonder.
Fire…works
Red and blue and yellow and green
With the loud cheers of Happy New Year
Children smile while being tucked into bed
Knowing there is nothing to fear
Once blossom like the flower,
Shapen like the moon
And soon it will be the mushroom
Red and… and… and grey
The cheers have died down
Left with smoke and fire and tears.
